[comp.soft-sys.andrew] The cursors and symbols and patterns are wrong

murf@dingus.sps.mot.com (Steve Murphy) (04/10/90)

a = arrow cursor?
J = when in scrollbar?
C = when thumbing the slider ?
g = when pulling a boundingbox ?
H = busy?

Within just the andrew-related windows,  there are some strange things
going on....

I'm using the X11 version.  I just built  it, and for some reason, all
my cursors are  letters. All my background  patterns are weird, and the
demo stuff (like the letter(L) with the  animated CMU logo), which the
text  indicated was "the   round  ITC logo") have characters  where it
looks like some symbol should go. I'd bet  it's some simple mixup with
fonts, like icon12.snf, but ....

What am I doing wrong?

X11r4 andrew distribution, SUNOS4.0.3, sun 3/60, cc compiled.

It sounds like you are not picking up the icon fonts.  Make sure they
are installed, and make sure that no other directory on your font path
provides identically named fonts.  Some of the Open Windows fonts
conflict in names with the Andrew fonts.
